The Littlest Ring Bearer

For all those who do not know yet---- Robin is pregnant again! Everything is great, she when for the sonogram today and found out, it's a boy! she is due October 19, 2006 (yes, a month before the wedding!) So, looks like Ryan and I may actually have the youngest ring bearer ever in a wedding! It's so exciting. He is absolutely adorable already, just get a load of him!


Caity seemed a little apprehensive as first; apparently she thought she would have to trade Emmy in for another baby, but after Robin and Matt explained that they are keeping Emmy and adding another baby, she seemed a bit more relaxed. She does however want to name the baby Nuppy, which I don't believe will actually happen.

So say hello to the latest edition to the wedding party!

The Flowers

After playing tag for two weeks we finally went for the flowers on Monday (actually me and my mom went). She was very helpful and very patient considering I haven't put much thought into the flowers, other then the color I wanted.

We ended up going with blue hydrangeas for the bridemaids, the ushers, and the flowers girls. My bouquet will have the blue hydrangeas as well, with yellow roses in it. I also got a small bouquet for tossing at the reception. Ryan will just have the yellow rose in his jacket. For the parents, we left it up in the air since the moms haven't gotten their dresses yet. Of course, everything is artificial because of my allergies and the fact that I don't want to die on my wedding day!

For the bridesmaids: If you have any extra material at the bottom of your dress, please save it and give it to me, we are going to need it for various reasons.

Here is a picture of the bridemaids bouquet and kind of a rough idea of what mine will look like. Plus, Melanie's Florals website.

Cleaning Up

We were suppose to go to the florist this morning and I was going to write about that today. But I had this huge migraine last night and even though I tried, I couldn't sleep until 4AM. So Ryan rescheduled the appointment for Monday 11AM, so now you know what next week will be about.

I felt guilty not writing anything this week, since last week was finals, and I didn't do anything except study Physics (By the way, rocked the final!).

Anyway, on Saturday, Ryan and my dad moved the entertainment center and the couch into the apartment. After that everyone cleaned. The place looks great, so here are some pictures before and after. We still have a bunch of stuff to move (like a bed) but that's not coming till August! So expect one more post on this topic with the finished results!

My Veil

My mom and I went veil shopping at Bridal's By Sandra last Friday.

I don't know why, but I was completely unprepared to put my dress on again, I guess it makes sense to try on your veil with your dress, to get the full picture and all.

For some reason, picking out the veil was actually harder then picking out my dress. I tried on a few and looked through a magazine. Eventually, I picked out a very long plain veil (No crown, just one of those pick thingys to attach to my head!) It has a separate thingy to cover my face when I walk down the aisle. I like it.

I'm not sure what the rules are about the groom seeing the veil before the wedding, so to play it safe, here are just some generic pictures of veils. If you are really curious, e-mail me and I'll send you a picture.
